Summary Also known as Model type Modular Model part of larger framework Note on status model Date note status model Technical specs Supported platforms Unix, Linux, Mac OS, Windows Other platform Programming language C Other program language Code optimized Single Processor Multiple processors implemented Nr of distributed processors Nr of shared processors Start year development 1997 Does model development still take place? Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through web repository Source web address http://www.hydro.washington.edu/Lettenmaier/Models/DHSVM/code.shtml Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other NOT SURE Memory requirements > 512Mb RAM Typical run time In/Output Describe input parameters Input parameters are: Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the basin Soil textural and hydraulic information Vegetation information Meteorological conditions at a subdaily timestep, in particular precipitation, air temperature, humidity, wind speed, incoming shortwave radiation and incoming longwave radiation Information about the stream and road network (location, width, etc.) Input format ASCII, Binary Other input format Describe output parameters There are a number of different types of output that the model can produce. In short, the following possibilities are available: DHSVM hydrologic output Default output (these files are always produced) Model state files Network flow files Travel time based hydrograph file Optional output files Sediment Module output Default output (these files are always produced) Network flow files Optional output files Output format ASCII Other output format Pre-processing software needed? Yes Describe pre-processing software Note that many input files are created using GIS and advanced skills are required. Post-processing software needed? No Describe post-processing software Visualization software needed? No If above answer is yes Other visualization software Process Describe processes represented by the model -- Describe key physical parameters and equations -- Describe length scale and resolution constraints -- Describe time scale and resolution constraints -- Describe any numerical limitations and issues -- Testing Describe available calibration data sets -- Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets Test datasets available on the web: http://www.hydro.washington.edu/Lettenmaier/Models/DHSVM/documentation.shtml Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing -- Other Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Is there a manual available? Yes Upload manual if available: Model website if any http://www.hydro.washington.edu/Lettenmaier/Models/DHSVM/index.shtml Model forum / discussion board Comments NOTICE: REGISTRATION IS NEEDED TO RECEIVE THE SOURCE CODE: http://www.hydro.washington.edu/Lettenmaier/Models/DHSVM/index.shtml Introduction History Papers Issues Help Input Files Output Files Download Source
